    Picked these up a while back. 10B 202 Twickenham These run larger than my last pair of 10B 202s. I suspect this may be something to do with the recent refreshing of the lasts that I have heard mentioned on these forums.

    Please see this post: http://www.styleforum.net/t/291745/edward-green-appreciation-pictures-info-and-where-to-buy/6390#post_6873307 It is called Martin's grain as it was made by W&J Martin's tannery. Note the names of the variety of leathers they made in that post. Please see a recipe for Zug...

    That certainly sounds possible, as this defect appears to materialise on the toe and heel. That said, the dark oak leather on my pair definitely feels drier than on my other EGs. I am hoping this will change with conditioning over time.

    I have experienced this "cracking" on dark oak, and my purchase was MTO and was therefore not sitting on a shelf.

    Yes, don't ignore this cracking. Exchange it for a refund. I recieved a pair of EG in Dark Oak recently, and they exhibited this cracking that you are seeing. The leather is quite dry, and the cracking gets worse very quickly with wear. There is clearly a problem with the dark oak recently...

    It is definitely wishful thinking. It might be worth noting that Zug used to be made by a tannery called Martin.

    Are you sure it is no longer being produced? This post from Ilcea back in August last year suggests otherwise: http://www.styleforum.net/t/338047/skoaktiebolaget-carmina-eg-gg-bonafe-saint-crispins-official-affiliate-thread/3825#post_7321901

    That's made me very sad :(

    Anyone know if EG are still taking MTOs in Zug/Heather Gorse?

    Triple leather sole? They must be pretty heavy. I wasn't aware EG would even do that. Is there even any real advantage over double leather?

    Tricker Bespoke Shoes

    Does anyone here have any experience with Tricker's bespoke service? I'm having trouble finding much information on it online.

    Damn, I'm a 10B! I think 10.5B would be too long...

    Is it correct that EG won't do the Galway in shell? In the store they told me they could, but I think someone here said they can't. If that is the case then this is especially interesting if they did EG's boot in shell.

    They were originally longer due to a mix up.

    Someone had some imitation Galways made up in shell cordovan. They were made by Rozsnyai in Budapest. https://imgur.com/a/XZ6PS#0

    Great! So glad to see you get something! That is a beautiful shoe. We'll need more photos when it arrives :) If I'm not too busy I may be going tomorrow, I don't expect there will be too much left. Are you still interested in more?

    What kind of variation is there in sizes? Are the mostly E width or are there any very narrow or wide shoes too?
